Upper Galilee and the Golan Sights

Golani Lookout

Fodor's Review

The large number of monuments to fallen soldiers in the Golan is a reminder of the region's strategic importance—and the price paid to secure it. Among the easily accessible sites, where pre-1967 Syrian bunkers give a gunner's-eye view of the valley below, is the Golani Lookout, known in Arabic as Tel Faher, in the northern Golan. Here you can explore the trenches and bunkers that now stand silent.
